I have most Aneros non syn versions. I like the hard plastic because it is much more slippery than any silicone toys I have tried. I have found that most silicone toys tend to be a bit grabby and not move as much.
Last week I ordered a Helix Syn V because I had never tried any of the vibrating Aneros models and I wanted to try a Syn because a lot of people say that the tabs are much more flexible so they move more, but I have found that the tabs on this model are not any more flexible than the standard Helix Trident. Looking at the pictures on their web site it seems that the arms on the Helix Syn V are much thicker than the standard Helix Syn Trident.
So my question is are the arms on the standard non-vibrating syn models significantly more flexible than the equivalent hard plastic models? I like the MGX so might try the MGX Syn.

Yes, the arms on the standard Syn models are significantly more flexible than the plastic equivalent. I really like that aspect of them since they are gentler than the plastic and allow deeper penetration.
The HSV arms are more rigid because part of the battery is in there I believe.
I actually just got the syn v a couple weeks ago and I noticed that right away. With the regular syn the tabs felt great but not overly noticeable. I could sit on a yoga ball and it felt great.
The syn v is nice and I’d still recommend it but the tabs can be a little too much, not comfortable at all if you are sitting. It’s also a bit bigger, which some people might like but I’m really tight. It takes a lot more work to get in and out.
Still like it and recommend. It’s got a much better battery life and more interesting vibration patterns than another brand I bought for the same price. If I could get the vibration feature on my original syn I would be I heaven.
